#inktober #flower pic no.10 - #forsythia - This hardy flowering shrub produces bright yellow flowers that bloom in late winter to early spring. This plant produces fruit commonly used in Chinese medicine to reduce inflammation and infection. It is named after a British botanist, and it is a flower that represents anticipation of things to come. - This #originalcharacter is Prince Asher Yang Solar, male counterpart of Princess Celestial Yin Lunar. — #pens #marker #inktober2018 #inkart #inkartwork #inkdrawing #sketchbook #moleskine #moleskinecahier #pentel #tradio #platinumpen #preppypen #sharpie #crayola #mujimarker #malecharacter

#inktober #flower pic no.9 - #lilac - These flowers represent confidence, innocence, and emotions of first love. They commonly come in violet and white, but can also come in pink, yellow, and burgundy. These flowers often bloom in spring to early summer. The wood of this shrub/tree is often used in making carving crafts and instruments. - This #originalcharacter is Princess Celestial Yin Lunar, a character I made way back in about 2003-2004. Her kingdom’s symbol was the lilac flower. She has a male counterpart, Prince Asher Yang Solar, whose symbol is the forsythia flower. — #inktober2018 #inkart #inkartwork #inkdrawing #purpleflowers #yin #femalecharacter #sketchbook #moleskine #moleskinecahier #pens #markers #pentel #tradio #kuretake #brushpen #midliners #mujimarkers

#inktober #flower pic no.8 - #birdofparadise - Native to South Africa, these tropical plants are named after the real bird-of-paradise; they’re also called crane flowers, again, named after the bird for its unique shape. They’re very common houseplants, and are given to people for their 9th wedding anniversary. - This should be my last #drawing until I’m off work again on the 9th - I no longer have time to spare to draw while I’m working at the current racetrack I’m at (too many graphics to make/type up and buttons to push). I’ll be cramming in another week’s worth of pics for #inktober2018 from my prompt when I get time off, so until then - enjoy! — #inkart #inkartwork #inkdrawing #moleskinecahier #moleskine #sketchbook #pens #markers #pilotpen #fountainpen #pentel #pentelpen #tradio #sharpie #sharpiemarker #crayola #crayolamarkers #crayolablendingmarkers #plant #tropicalflowers

#inktober #flower pic no.6 - #iris - These flowers are named after the Greek goddess of rainbows, which is appropriate since they come in many colors from red to black-purple, though the most popular colors are white, blue, violet, and yellow. They represent loyalty and good tidings and news. - Like Cedrick and Vincent-Claude, I had drawn Rufus back in 2006-2007 with a flower. For Rufus, it was an iris, perfect considering his profession is a photojournalist. - I thought about coloring it, but decided to keep it plain and simple. There’s plenty of detail in the #inkdrawing as is, and I put my UK-themed notebook next to the pic because the character is British-Irish. — #inktober2018 #inkart #inkartwork #sketchbook #moleskine #moleskinecahier #pens #pilotpen #fountainpen #pentel #pentelpen #tradio #originalcharacter #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdrawing

#inktober #flower pic no.4 - #sunflower - (I know I messed up the order of my prompt, but whatever, lol) My grandfather always called these flowers “weeds” in his corn fields, but sunflowers can be useful being grown for their seeds and oil. They grow up very tall, are symmetrical in shape, and are very recognizable with their bright yellow petals resembling the sun. According to Hanakotoba (the Japanese art of speaking with flowers), this flower called Himawari represents respect, passionate love, and radiance. - The line art was done with #ink, but I colored it in digitally with #autodesksketchbook using a basic marker brush. - For this pic, it’s a young Johannes Faustuz Kasper wearing traditional clothing with a pretzel in hand. And like a sunflower, he’s simple in appearance, grows up much taller than everyone else around him, and is always reliable whenever he’s needed. — #inktober2018 #inkdrawing #inkart #inkartwork #digitalcoloring #sketchbook #moleskine #moleskinecahier #pilotpen #fountainpen #pentel #pentelpen #tradio #originalcharacter #originalcharacterart #malecharacter #child #boy #german #himawari

#inktober #flower pic no.3 - #orchid - These tropical flowers come in so many forms and shapes, from female bees to monkey faces (yes, look it up - it’s no joke). They’re very beautiful but also very delicate and require care. - I’m just cramming in as many of these I can before I get busy with work again; therefore, I’m probably putting a lot of people to shame being able to spew out three out of my #inktober2018 prompt in about a day when many barely are able to make one in a day (Sorry/not sorry, lol). This is a typical #inkdrawing that’s all #blackink, which makes it a bit more plain and simple. And I’m currently in love using the #clearfountainpen - one of many things I’ve bought from @maidosantaanita (I LOVE that store for art supplies). — #moleskinecahier #moleskine #sketchbook #pens #kuretake #kuretakebrushpen #whitebrushpen #pilotpen #fountainpen #pentelpen #tradio #blackwhite #inkart #inkartwork

#inktober #flower pic no.2 - #tulip - Tulips come in various colors and are one of the most popular flowers people grow in their gardens. They’re originally from around Turkey, but are also associated with the Netherlands due the Dutch being obsessed with these flowers in the 17th century. - This pic is kinda a nod to an old drawing I made of Cedrick back circa 2006-2007 using mainly #sharpiemarkers (it’s in my dA gallery somewhere). But this version the wunderkind is actually a kind, and I used multiple #inkbased media aside from #sharpie. - For #inktober2018, I’m just going to follow my prompt and cram as many as I can do while I don’t have work - my job has been uber busy and demanding lately, especially with Columbus Day coming up this month (that means working on a holiday, though many don’t consider it a real holiday, lol). And that means I might actually do more than the usual 31 pics, which my #flower prompt allows for. — #originalcharacterdrawing #originalcharacter #malecharacter #boy #child #inkart #inkdrawing #inkartwork #pilotpen #fountainpen #midliner #midliners #midlinerhighlighters #sharpiemarker #crayolamarkers #crayolablendingmarkers #sketchbook #molskine #moleskinecahier

#inktober #flower pic no.1 - #rose with #babysbreath - Roses are classic flowers that often represent love, beauty, and grace. They’re also a birth flower of June alongside Honeysuckle. - Freyja’s birthday is in late June, making her a Cancer; kinda funny because she’s married to an oncologist (doctor who diagnoses/treats cancer). — #drawing #inkdrawing #inkart #inkartwork #inktober2018 #originalcharacter #flowers #femalecharacter #sketchbook #moleskine #moleskinecahier #fountainpen #sharpiepen

#flashbackfriday / #sentimentalsaturday : an old pic from last November - #hospitaldrama with Hr. Dr. Johannes Faustuz Kasper and Kimiko Abe the nurse. — #digitalart #digitalartwork #digitaldrawing #wacomart #hospitalsetting #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdrawing

#flashbackfriday / #sentimentalsaturday : an old pic from last November - #hospitaldrama with Dr. Tyrone Williams and the younger Hr. Dr. Kasper Cedrick covered in blood. - Fun Note: Cedrick wears mismatched socks and slippers while he’s at work - a bit of an ode to a German saying about putting on one’s slippers before leaving, or in other words, to hurry up (I forgot how it’s said or where exactly I learned it - either a podcast, book, video, or a pen pal). — #digitalart #digitalartwork #digitaldrawing #wacomart #hospitalsetting #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdrawing

#childhoodsweethearts Johannes Faustuz Kasper and Freyja Ström #backtoschool. - Freyja looks nervous for many reasons: she hasn’t seen him in months due to summer break and working as a teen model, and the boy she likes is finally growing up taller than her. — #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdrawing #boygirl #girlboy #teenagers #couple #malecharacter #femalecharcter #moleskine #moleskinecahier #sketchbook #penart #pendrawing #inkart #inkdrawing #blackink #brushpen #pilotpen #frixionball #platinumfountainpen #kuretake #kuretakebrushpen #penteltradio

- Pg. 1: Finished Pg. 2: Line Art (feel free to color in with tag @frauv8) Pg. 3: Rough Sketch Pg. 4: Cleaned Up Line Art Video Pg. 5: Coloring Process Video I think I’m a week too early for #oktoberfest to be posting this, but whatever. Prost! 🍻 (Don’t expect much more German out of me - I’m going to butcher phrases since I haven’t touch it in a long time. Same goes for French. 😅 ) - Anyway, it’s the Kaspers being a bit festive for the celebration: Johannes Faustuz is grumpy as always, Freyja is dressed up in #lederhosen instead of a dirndl, and Cedrick is happy just for the chance for a large cold #stein of #beer. It’s a simple pic, but there’s still quite a bit of attention to detail - mainly Faustuz’s and Cedrick’s shoes (#Puma vs. #Adidas) and the #jersey (it’s the green training jersey without the gold FIFA World Cup patch since France is now the current champion). — #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdrawing #originalcharacterdesign #digitalart #digitaldrawing #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #ipadproart #ipadprodrawing #speeddrawing #speedcoloring #family #familyofthree #fathermotherson #father #mother #son #germany #germany🇩🇪 #german #drinking #drinkingbeer

It’s a digital version of today’s #workdrawing: Cedrick enjoying a nice hot soy pumpkin latte among the #fallleaves. Why soy? Like his father, he’s lactose intolerant. And I can tell you firsthand as a SoCal gal, they are delicious, especially iced. - #firstdayoffall means pumpkin spiced drinks, sweaters, and colorful leaves. It’s also my favorite season because #fall food is yummy (I want to go to a real Oktoberfest one day), clothing actually looks good at this time of the year, and it’s not the quite the holiday season yet (I have a good reason to hate the holiday season - my birthday is Christmas Eve and it’s not fun competing with Jesus for attention). — #digitalart #digialdrawing #ipadproart #ipadprodrawing #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #originalcharacter #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdrawing #malecharacter #blond #glasses #drinkingcoffee #red #leaves

“Yes? What is it?” - Today’s #workdrawing: Vincent-Claude reveals what he literally has under his sleeves - #tattoos.

I originally planned to draw 4 more characters, but I’m so tired~😑💤 - Here are the missus: • Freyja Ström 🇸🇪 (Married to Hr. Dr. Kasper) • Asia Williams 🇺🇸 (Married to Dr. Williams) Both are ambitious beauties who married men that most people would be scratching their heads in confusion to figure out why. For Freyja, she thought how Asia and Tyrone met was really romantic; as for Asia, she’s still in disbelief that her favorite TV idol is married to someone she sees as a dork and lacks style. - Freyja was a new student from Sweden when she first met Johannes Faustuz, who was the classic class geek. She grew very interested in him when she saw him read books such as “Great Expectations” alongside science and comic books at the library, and felt pity for him once she found out he was a poor orphan raised by his aunt - so much that she often brought two lunches from home so she can feed him and he can “grow up nice and tall” (he was much shorter than her at the time). The two children grew up in love despite her father’s disapproval, which led her to being disowned for several years until Cedrick was born. So it’s Beauty and the Geek/Rich Girl meets Poor Boy for Freyja and Faustuz. - For Asia, she lost a bet against Tyrone regarding sports, which he had bet to take her out to dinner. She obviously didn’t find him attractive and still can’t stand his terrible jokes, but one day she found out that Tyrone takes care of the grandmother who had raised him while studying hard to become a pediatrician and working at the local gas station. This made her rethink how she should treat Tyrone, and from there the two got married and had their daughter Queenie. — #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #originalcharacterdesign #femalecharacters #female #women #ladies #digitalart #digitalartwork #digitaldrawing #ipadproart #ipadprodrawing #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #redhair #redhead #naturalhair #afro #frauv8_ocs

Been a while since I’ve done a #workdrawing in my mini #leuchtturm1917 #sketchbook/#notebook .
